[Comparison of 5-year survival rates of patients with the most common malignant neoplasms living in urban and rural areas in the years 1982-1983].
Almost every fifth man and every third woman with malignant neoplasm living in urban and rural areas of the Cracov region, had in the years 1982-1983 the chance to survive 5 years. 5 year survivals of patients from urban and rural areas did not differ significantly. Also in other periods of time between 1976-1977 and 1982-1983 the differences were insignificant. As compared with data taken from other populations in the years 1982-1983, particularly low level of 5 year survivals has been noted in Cracov of male patients with cancer of the colon and in women with cancer of the uterine body. The survivals of patients with malignant neoplasms of the colon in both sexes, of the prostate and kidney in men and of breast in women are strikingly low in Polish patients. Also the survivals of Polish women with carcinoma of the uterine cervix are significantly lower as compared with other countries.
